Further Information:

Submitted papers must have not been published or be currently under the consideration for publication in any other journal or conference with formal proceedings. All accepted papers will have to be presented by one of the authors at the conference. Accepted papers will be published in one of two journal supplements, either to BMC Genomics or to BMC Bioinformatics. BMC will charge publication fees independently from the conference registration.

Posters

/ By / In Papers & Posters

The annual RECOMB-CG satellite conference brings together leading researchers in the mathematical, computational, and life sciences to discuss cutting edge research. Next to six invited keynote speakers and 20 contributed talks, the technical program also includes a vivid poster session.

CALL FOR POSTERS



We invite all participants to present their latest results that fall within the general scope of the conference as a poster. To do so, please submit a poster abstract in PDF format to recombcg2015@easychair.org

The abstract will be included into the Conference Program booklet, and must be limited to one A4 page (12 pt font) in length including all references and figures.

  • Poster Submission Deadline: Friday 28 August, 2015.
  • Notification of Acceptance: Tuesday 1 September, 2015.
  • We offer the possibility for late poster submission. However, we cannot guarantee that late poster abstracts are considered in the printed conference booklet.

The poster session is scheduled to the afternoon of Monday 5 October, but posters will be on display for the entire duration of the conference. The format will be A0 vertical (84cm=33.1″ wide, 118cm=46.8″ high). At least one author of each accepted poster is required to register for and attend the conference.

Important Dates

Paper Submission Deadline: June 19, 2015
Author Notification: July 10, 2015
Final Version due: July 20, 2015

Details on Submitting a Manuscript

Submitted papers must have not been published or be currently under the consideration for publication in any other journal or conference with formal proceedings. All accepted papers will have to be presented by one of the authors at the conference. Accepted papers will be published in one of two journal supplements, either to BMC Genomics or to BMC Bioinformatics. (Upon submission, authors may choose between the two options. The Supplement Editors, however, will keep the right to modify the choice where necessary.)

Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to the guidelines in BMC’s Instructions for authors of the respective journal (BMC Genomics or BMC Bioinformatics):

http://www.biomedcentral.com/authors/instructions

Note that the strict formatting requirements only apply to the final versions after acceptance. For the review process it is actually preferred if only a single document is submitted, containing all text, tables and figures.

As BMC Genomics and BMC Bioinformatics are Open Access journals, there will be an author fee of £922 (Nine Hundred and Twenty Two Pounds Sterling) for publication in the event that an article is accepted.

All submissions must be made online, through the EasyChair submission system, at the following address:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=recombcg2015

You need to register on that web site before submitting. A standard PDF file must be received by midnight on June 19, 2015 (time zone of your choice) in order for your submission to be considered. Re-submission of already submitted papers will be possible until midnight June 22, 2015 (time zone of your choice).
